What’s Behind Your Mask?

Take away the ruby red lips and you’ll find a Mona Lisa smile.

Take away the rosy blush and you’ll find simple dimples.

Wash away the eyeliner and frosty gray shadow and you’ll find two pools of icey blue waters.

Wash away the shoe polish hair and you will find cascading locks of shimmering sunshine.

Disrobe of satin, feathers and frock and find your nakedness.

Now look closely at the mirror to see the one who is called Me.

“Hello Me” I say, but I say nothing in return.
